    Selvedge denim: what are your recommendations?

    Always looking for a great pair of jeans, and I like to break them in myself, so I usually go the"raw" route. There are SO many brands out there claiming to offer selvedge denim, and I figured you gents would know some more esoteric/authentic brands. Oh, and I'm not willing to drop more...

    Aero Hardware choices: which way to go

    So, I'm leaning towards a Half Belt at the moment and need to begin filling in the details. I'm going brown FQHH and was thinking antique brass. Fits the style of the jacket and is low-key. But it occurred to me that "normal" brass would patina over time and end up looking "antique" at...

    Fit jacket pics

    First up: Cafe Racer Front and sleeves are perfect. Not too much room for any layers, though. Hmmmm Back, to me, is a train wreck: It's like a balloon above the kidney belt. Not psyched about that, but maybe attributable to the shoulder gussets, which I would not get anyway...

    Aero Fit Jackets are here!!

    Ok, so the Sonoma and the Half Belt arrived today! Both in black, but I'm going brown in whichever style I choose. Anyway, since I'm in the office I haven't had much time to spend admiring, but out of the box: damn, they're heavy, damn, they're stiff, and damn, they smell good. Wade...

    Thoughts on doing a buckle cuff on a 30's Half Belt? Different collar sizes?

    Ok, now I'm even more confused: Aero Sheene v. Sonoma v. Half Belt

    Another member told me about the Sheene jacket, basically a cafe racer with a collar. Hmmm. So what's the diff between it and the Half Belt? If anyone has this (these) jackets, I'd really appreciate your thoughts, and pics even moreso. Thanks you all for in advance for your time...

    Another newbie question: what is a "dirt rider" collar?

    Someone on here snagged the exact jacket that I'm currently interested in: Aero cafe racer in brown FQHH, but he mentioned a "dirt rider" collar. His DID look a bit "higher" than the standard, but I may be seeing things. Once again, your help is appreciated.

    Aero: Cafe racer or Half-Belt!!??

    So, I'm waiting on my "fit jacket" (Sonoma Cafe Racer) and I keep doing research. I come across shots of the Aero Half-Belt and now I don't know which way to go!! Oh, and I'm all about brown leather. To begin, I don't ride, so this a pure fashion jacket. Which style is more versatile...
